Verily the past was a blinking generation ! We ask, is it so now ? Every one must empha tically answer, ‘. No !"

All historians must have their prejudices ; and a consideration of this fact has given rise to the proposed Series : for what is a His tory of France by an Englishman, but another version of the History of England ? Has not the success of the one been the defeat of the other ? Truth must be sought for by comparing the respective Histories as written by the National Historians. It is therefore proposed to translate and publish, at such prices as will bring them within the reach of all classes, a Series of Trull National Histories.

This IRISH WASTE LAND SOCIETY. TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN. beg to correct some errors in the report of the ob servations made by me, at the meeting of the Irish Waste Land Society, which appeared in your paper of last evening. The sum stated by me to be remaining in the hands of the Directors, was not, as given in your paper, 3004, but nearly 3,000/. My statement was to the effect that for a sum, which did not amount to two-thirds of the deposits on the shares dis posed of, not only had an Act of Parliament been obtained, but engagements concluded for two extensive tracts of land, leaving nearly 3,0001. of the deposits in the hands of the Di rectors. The extract read by me in illustration of the facility of reclaiming the Bog of Allen was taken from the work of Mr. Ripens, and not Williams, as given in your paper. Mr. Binns was Assistant Agricultural Commissioner on the late Irish Poor Inquiry. I have the honour to be, Sir, Your most obedient Servant, N. LUDLOW BEAMISH. Windham Club, St. James's-square, Feb. 28, 1838. CENTRAL CRIMINAL COURT. (YESTERDAY.) NEW COURT. At a late hour last night, the following case, important to all tarern and coffeehouse keepers, was tried before Mr. Sergeant A 111111 N. John Dudsly, described in the calendar as a labourer, aged S, was indicted for stealing a silver tea-spoon, the property of Martin Sander son, proprietor of the Boar and Castle tavern, Oxford-street. One of the prosecutor's witnesses deposed, that between six and seven o'clock on Tuesday evening, the 6th February, the prisoner went into the coffeehouse and called for a glass of cold gin and water; when that was taken to him he called for a slice of lemon and a spoon. From the appearance of the prisoner, he (witness) suspected all was not right, and accordingly watered him. During his absence, however' the prisoner bolted, taking with him the spoon, which wasa silver one ; did not see the prisoner till the following Friday, when he was in custody ; was quite sure the prisoner is the man who took the spoon. Mr PAYNE briefly addressed the jury on behalf of the prisoner, and called the following witnesses to prove an alibi. Sarah White, stated that she was acquainted with the prisoner and his wife, who resided in Bermondsey-street, Bermondsey. On the evening of Tuesday the 6th February she went to their house at five o'clock to take tea ; and remained there to supper, and left about ten o'clock, daring the whole of that period, the prisoner was at home attending to his business. The wttneas was very strictly cross-examined by the Learned Judge, but persisted in her statement. Elizabeth Holley stated that she was at the prisoner's on the even ing of the 6th of February. The last witness was also there. They spent the evening together. Wys quite sure the prisoner was at home all that evening. The Learned JUDGE having summed up, the Jury, without any hesi tation, acquitted the prisoner. The prisoner was again indicted for stealing on the same evening a silver tea spoon of the value of 55., the property of Richard Higgins, the proprietor of the King's Arms Tavern, Oxford,street, and also on the Bth, a table spoon of the vplue of 153., the property of the same person. Mr. PAYNE again defended the prisoner. Ann Smith deposed that she was waitress at the King's Arms. On Tuesday even i n g, the 6th of Ferruary, sh or tl y b efore nine o'clock, a person entered the coffee-room, and called for a glass of gin and water; which was supplied to him ; in the glass was a silver spoon, which on the person's leaving was missed. On tn e f o ll owing Thursday the pri_ sorer went to the coffe e-room and as ked for a bosons of soup, but h e i ng informed that they had not any, he then said he would have a muttons chop and some m ashed potatoes, which were s upp li ed to him. While eating it, a perton inform ed witn e s s that the prisoner was th e man who on Friday even i n g had stolen the spoon. Accordingly on his calling for another chop a spoon was marked, and laid before him. When he was about to leave witness observed that the silver spoon had been removed, and, its its place, a metal one was substitut e d . She gave information to young Mr. Higg i ns , who subsequently saw the silver spoon drop from his trowsers. William Hiffens, corroborated the later part of the foregoing state.. meat, and added, that upon making the discovery, he called in a police- Man, and gave the prisoner into custody. Mr. Sergeant ARABIN — WeII Mr. Payne, now what do yon think of your allbif--(Laughter.) Mr. Payne—l have no doubt I shall be able to satisfy the Jury of the prisoner's innoceece. He then addressed the Jury in a very ingenious speech, contending that the witnesses for the prosecution were mistaken. Mr. Sergeant ARABIN was about to sum up the evidence, but was s t oppe d be the Jury, who immediately found the prisoner Guilty. Mr. Sergeant ARABIN, addressing the prisoner, said—Bad as you are, the worst part of your conduct is, inducing those young women to come here for the purpose of perjuring themselves. I have not the least doubt of your guilt, and I have received very good information that these are not the only offences which you have committed. The sentence of the Court is, that you be transported for the taro of 7 years. Mr. Sergeant ARAEIN then ordered the two women, White and Holley, to be committed to N'ewgate for perjury; rid they were taken into custody accordingly. LLOYD'S SHIPPING.-(THIS DAY.)

OUT DOOR COSTUME.—The cold weather that has lasted so long makes our eleyantes so fond of wrapping up, that we cannot find much to say of their present attire ; mantles and furs are decidedly the order of the day, but we have seen some novelties for outdoor costume, of a very elegant description, which will appear in the course of a few days. HATS AND BoNNETs—Drawn bonnets are also losing ground in favour. Velvet bonnets of eliapeux cap; to shape, trimmed with a bouquet of marabouts, or bats with the brims extending round the back of the crown, are the most in fa vour ; thee last are variously trimmed, but the most simply elegant still is satin ribbon of the same colour, and a long flat ostrich feather also to correspond, which winds in a spiral di rection round the crown. __— The Scotsman of Saturday last, in its report of the state of the weather is Ediliburib, sa3 s that the froLt had re laxed, but that snow had beg u n to fall again. The Marylebone election has terminated in favour of the Tory candidate, Lord Teignmouth, and the borough is now completely nullified—Mr. Hall being a Liberal in every sense of the word, and Lord Teignmouth an ultra-Tory. The result has not surprised us or our readers. There was an ample ma jority in favour of the Liberal cause, had the Liberal interest been united, as was not only shown upon the last election, but also upon the present by the state of the poll ; but the madmen of Marylebone seeing, upon the state of the poll, at the early hour of nine o'clock, that Colonel Thompson had not the slightest chance of being returned, very consistently turned round and voted, not for Mr. Ewart, but for the Tory , candidate ! This highly honourable conduct on the part of the ultra-Radical electors of Maryleboue, has caused the loss of two Liberal votes in the Liberal interest, in the House of Common's ; but we must say that both upon moral and political grounds we scarcely regret the result. The ultra , Radicals are now well known—they arc Tories in disguise, and cannot in future be mistaken. We once thought that they were honest —we now find them to be not only impracticable, but dishonest. How Colonel Thompson can reconcile his conduct upon this occasion, we know not. That he has been grossly deceived by unprincipled and selfish persons who have made a tool of him, we readily believe; but how comes it that hour after hour it became clearer and clearer that he had no friends ?—that he did not resign —and that he did not re quest the few friends that he had to give their votes in favour of his equally Liberal opponent ? Had this conduct been pursued, Mr. Ewart would have been simply in a minority of one, even according to the figures upon the poll-book; but with the allowance for waverers and for thousands who, on account of Tory prosecution in consequence of their indepen dent conduct upon the last election, did not vote, there is every reason to believe that Mr. Ewart would have been the sue cessful candidate. However, the result has been unfavour able, and Colonel Thompson and his ultra-Radical confede rate have given the final blow to Radicalism in England for twenty yeals to come. No Liberal will henceforth trust them. They are Tories in disguise, and the sooner they unmask the better. At the close of the poll at four o'clock the numbers . stood thus : Ewart Teignmouth 4,179 Thompson 211 Majority for Teignmouth ... —436 —Morning Advertiser. Lord Teignmouth has prevailed, and Marylebono is repre. sented by a Tory. The numbers at four o'clock yesterday were—For Lord Teignmouth, 4,223 ; for Mr. Ewart, 3,856; and for Colonel Thompson, 238. The majority of Lord Teignmouth oaer Mr. Ewart is 367. Had the votes for Col. Thompson been added to Mr. Ewart's, the majority in favour of Lord Teignmouth would have been reduced to 129. It is tolerably clear that the Colonel never had the slightest chance of success. We cannot say that we are astonished at the course the Colonel has pursued ; because, after the evidence of the state of his head in the letter to the Working Men's Association at Hull, copied into the Chronicle of Monday last nothing which ho says or does ought to surprise any one. Our readers may recollect that in the production alluded to, the Colonel expressed it as his opinion that in the deplorable event of the King of Hanover's succession to the throne of England our liberties would be in jeopardy ; and that his notable panacea—the first step—towards safety—was to net the present Ministers out of office, in order, of course, to get the Tory friends of the King of Hanover into office, by way of guarding against the attacks on our liberty in the event of his succession. It will be argued by the Tories no doubt that the return of Lord Teignmouth affords a proof of a reaction in favour of the Tories. At the last election he polled 2,952, and at the pre sent he has polled 4,223, an increase of 1,271 in half a year. But on the face of the thing too much is here proved. Colonel Thompson's address, too, in our advertising columns, affords a confirmation of what is confidently affirmed by numerous per sons well acquainted with Mraylebone, that Murphy's party of ultra- Radicals, after the first or second hour, voted for Lord Teignmouth. It was distinctly affirmed by a leading supporter of Colonel Thompson that at least one thousand ultra-Radicals voted for his Lordship. That two hundred or three hundred Reformers who voted at the last elec tion might abstain from voting at this is, we think, probable, for it cannot be concealed that there is a growing disinclina tion in tradesmen to expose themselves to sacrifices in the way of business on account of their votes ; but in estimating this class of electors at three hundred we probably rather over than under rate them. The rest of the 1,271 is, no doubt, made up of the ultra-Radicals. " We have defended (says Colonel Thompson) our little post with complete success." The ob ject, then, of Colonel Thompson's starting for Marylebono was, not to be himself returned, but to prevent a Reformer from being returned. Mr. Ewart is one of the most decided of Reformers, and during the whole period he was in Parlia ment he strenuously supported every Liberal measure. This, then, is the complete success ! " The Whigs," proceeds the Colonel, " have pointed to the dangerous secret. that not one of' them can be elected unless the Radicals consent. If the Whigs have their reasons for seating a Tory in preference to a Radical, the Radicals by that very fact have cause to prefer him to a Whig. Our example will not be lost." We cannot say that we understand the Colonel's allusion. All Whigs are not perfection any more than all Radicals are ; and if Whigs seated a Tory in preference to a Radical, all we can say is that they acted very foolishly. But, on the assumption that the Colonel is borne out by the fact, we confess we do not exact►y comprehend how the folly of some Whigs justified the still more egregious fully of the ultra- Radicals of Marylebone. Mr. Ewart is a Whig, and something more ; he is in fact a staunch Radical Reformer; and even (which we deny) were the Colonel justified in supporting an enemy to all Reform in preference to one who stops short of the Reform for which the Radicals contend, that would not justify the preferring a Tory to a stanch Radical Reformer. This we will say of Mr. Ewart, that there was nut a more decided Reformer than himself all the time he was in Prrliament. Col. Thompson himself in his Letter days was always crotchety, and on a memo rable occasion, when a single vote was of immense con sequence, chose to desert his place in Parliament, for a feast in Hull. Mr. Ewart was never absent from his post. The plain English of Colonel Thompson's address iv, that the ultra-Radicals possess the power of seating a Tory, and to prove that they possess such power they have seated Lord Teignmouth. And should the example of Marylebone be followed, as Colonel Thompson predicts that it will, the danger suspended over the country from the succession being open to the King of Hanover will be guarded against most effectually by filling Parliament with the partisans of that King, and the Reform cause will be completely successful by placinre power in the hands of the enemies of all Reform. The Marylebone exhibition is one of which the Reformers have no cause to be proud. It is painful to think that men like this Murphy should possess even Fit) much influence with any class of Reformers as to enable him, in a contest between a Tory and an excellent Reformer, to turn the scale in favour of the Tory.—Morning Chronicle. We have not room to-day to do more than offer our con gratulations to all friends of the Constitution upon the result of the Marylebone election. The Whig- Radical Candidate Las been beaten, and a Conservative returned by a majority of 436. It is worthy of especial notice that Lord Teignmouth has at this election polled 1,227 votes more then he polled at the lest. And yet there is no reaction ! Oh, no 1 It is equally remarkable that Colonel Thompson's starting has had little if any influence on the election. He polled only 211 votes; Mr. Ewart polled 3,743, and Lord Teignmouth polled 4,179. Thus bursts the Ministerial bubble about Mr. Evvart's certainty of success if Colonel Thompson did not succeed in dividing the " Liberal" interest. From an early hour, Lord Teigurnouth took the lead in gallant style, and maintained it, with varied success, throughout the day. The contest, as will be seen from the state of the poll at its close, lay entirely between his Lordship and Mr. Ewart, the Government nomi nee. At four o'clock, when the books were shut, the num bers polled respectively by each candidate, according to the Conservative Committee's statement, were as follows Lord Teignmouth Mr. Ewart Colonel Thompson 2ll Between the Radied dinner hours, one and three o'clock, the rush of your ten-pounders to the poll told, as usual, in favour of the Liberal gentleman, whose politics are most in accordance with their average amount of intelligence and stake in the country. About midday, accordingly, 11r. Ewart brought down Lord Tcignmouth's curly majority by nearly 500 votes; that is to say, the Whig-Radica7s were enabled to make just such an approach to success, as has served to give double bitterness and mortification -to defeat. Nor is this victory, as we have already stated, attributable to any sup posed disunion among the Destructives. It is true that between the leaders of the faction there was a consider el le disagreement; but that the imm en se ma j or i t y o f th e i r troops were brought to the field in a fins and united co lumn, is evident from the fact, that the diversion, headed by Colonel Thompson, was supported by only 211 voters. The Liberals, therefore, have been beaten in a fair stand up fight ; and this, too, with the whole weight of Government influence and of parochial authority exerted, most discreditably, in op position to the constitutional cause. All the official vermin .infesting the vestry-boards and local municipal institutions— all your rate-collectors, registrars, and superintendent-regis t:ars, dependent on Whig patronage, and dismissible at Whig pleasure,—all these political mercenaries were to be seen in the several polling-booths, according to their districts, bully ing the poll-officers in favour of aliens and every other descrip tion of disqualified voters, whose unlawful suffrages, so' inde-. cently brawled for by such hirelings, were nevertheless vigi lantly objected to by the Conservatives, though not always with due effect. In short, Mr. E wart hal the benefit of every Ministerial mid parochial influence that .could pos sibly be mustered, aided by the united labours and ex perience of the whole of Mr. Hall's Committee. But it would not do. To the " ten boroughs which applied to him since he lost Liverpool," he may now add the borough of Marylebone, lie lacing still left in the market for any Radical constituency that may take a fancy for such a bargain. The condemnation with which this return has branded Mr. Joseph Hume and his expiring diva is a highly emphatic one. But for that foolish and forward personage, there is no reason to believe that any attempt would have been made to thrust Mr. Ewart upon the Marylebone voters, nor has Joseph failed to strain every nerve to regain in that borough the influence w hien he had lost . in the inotropolitan county. The result, therefore, is substantially a second de feat for that forlorn and faded patriot ; and as t 'le Whig Ministry, ideniif)ing themselves with Joseph's nminee, 'lava perked donb'e tides' to prevent the addition of awother vote to the Conserva'ive opposition, they also a-..e covered with their due share of Jeseph's unpopularity and disgrace. Upon the whole, the glee icus termination to which . this cont es t has. been brought is highly encouragieg to the friends of order, and indicates such sound political stamina among the great body of the people as require only tune and attention to deve lope themselves in still greater strenth throughout the other large constituencies of the kingdom.— ?'lutes. The electors of Marylebone have this time done their duty well. The triumphant return of Lord Teigneeouth, by a inn-
